Professional Fuel System Cleaning

July 1, 2022



Getting adequate fuel to your engine is very important for performance, fuel economy and safety. In order to accomplish this, your fuel system needs to be clean.

Today's production cars have fuel injectors, rather than a carburetor. The injectors need to be cleaned from time to time in order to deliver the fuel with the correct pressure, spray pattern and volume.

Chicago drivers can buy fuel system cleaners that you pour into your gas tank to help maintain an already clean fuel system; however, they can't do a major cleaning. For that, you need to see Tuffy Chicago (Diversey Pkwy) in Chicago. We have the tools and chemicals to do the job right. Our friendly and knowledgeable team at Tuffy Chicago (Diversey Pkwy) can remove particles, gum and varnish from your fuel system and get those injectors running cleanly and efficiently.
